How can we help learners feel autonomy, competence, and relatedness? Here’s a video of the webinar I recently ran on that topic, plus a summary of what we talked about. Training design: 3 ways to motivate learners from Cathy Moore on Vimeo. It’s all about self-determination. According to self-determination theory, when people are externally motivated, they simply obey someone else’s rules (“I do it because the boss is watching”).

Eighty percent of major companies expect to be using artificial intelligence by 2020, but their training departments are likely to be the last places you’ll find it. We need to fix that. A recent survey of Millennials revealed that 40% of them interact with a chatbot , a program that simulates a human conversation, on a daily basis while another survey indicates that many people prefer to use chatbots over humans for certain types of customer support transactions.

How you can encourage self-directed learning from your students in your your online courses. Online courses present challenges that traditional classrooms do not face. While learners in a classroom engage with their peers and instructors face-to-face, the lack of in-person contact causes many online learners to feel a sense of disconnect and isolation in their learning environment.

Last year I wrote a post about how to make a personal progress tracker. I’ve made some changes to my own progress tracker since then and thought I’d share them. After a few months using the old way I started to get frustrated with it. My progress tracker made it look like I had a lot of lazy weeks. But I knew that I’d been doing other important things that weren’t on my progress tracker.

Creating and launching an e-learning course is a long but satisfying journey. However, it doesn’t end after launch. So many people make the mistake of thinking their course is a finite project. That all they need to do is put in a lot of initial work and then when it is complete they can just sit back and relax. This can be your reality, but if you sell your course then don’t expect to be in business very long.

There’s no denying it — tying learning to business results is a challenging and resource-intensive task. Many companies struggle with demonstrating this connection across a variety of industries. Most, in fact, have a tough time progressing past the basic measures of learning like performance improvement and organizational compliance.

Faster than ever, the world is shifting and shaping how people work, exposing and creating deep skill divides across industries and around the world. As a result, business and HR leaders are scrambling to “upskill” employees. If you’re scrambling to upskill your employees but don’t know where to start, make skills analysis a routine part of your decision-making process.

I mentioned in yesterday’s post that one thing I do in getting objectives is focus on decisions. And, simple ones will get automated; we can train AI to handle these. What will make the difference between ordinary and extraordinary organizations is the ability to make decisions in this new VUCA environment (volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous).

When it comes to online courses sometimes time is money. The longer it takes, the more money you lose (or lose out on). The good news is that there are things you can do to you can get your course released in a timely fashion. However, I should mention that you should never sacrifice the quality of your course simply so that you can “get something out there” A thorough course that arrives later to the market is better than a poorly done one that is available early.

1. Expand your definition of “success.” Before you create a plan, you should know what defines success for your organization. One primary question to ask is: “Were bottom-line outcomes achieved?” ‘Hmmm…’ you ponder via internal monologue, ‘What bottom-line objective?’ Good question.

When we talk about game-based learning and gamification , we’re always throwing in the notion of learner engagement. We’re immersing our learners through…what? Fun? Games? Play. It’s all about the power of play, and how humans naturally learn in playful states. Play takes on many shapes, sizes, and definitions.

508 compliance—it’s the hottest topic in eLearning! Okay, that might be a stretch, but creating accessible learning is worth talking about, especially if you are employed by—or creating eLearning for—a federal agency. On January 18, 2017, the United States Access Board published a final rule that jointly updates requirements for information and communication technology (ICT) covered by Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act and Section 255 of the Communication Act.

We’ve all been there. You’ve been given a pile of dry content and asked to create a compelling eLearning course. You’re determined to create something more engaging than the same old course that learners quickly click through, but how do you take this “boring” content and create something relevant and engaging?
